Interesting

[CINDERS]

I was going through some old files on the comp and came across this.
The engineering drawing for the Mk VII ball projectile which gives you its dimensions and construction.
You can see the reason why it had a reputation for causing nasty wounds with the aluminium filler in the front of the projectile.
Once the nose deformed the heavier rear of the projectile tended to end over the projectile as it continued through the err enemy.

Now there is somethings that I did notice well a couple actually one being that it has no cannular on the copper jacket to lock the core and the neck crimp stab.
The other one, well I'll leave you to discover that one as it caught me by surprise as I had always been told something entirely different.
Use the + to get it to 146% makes it easier to see now its up to those that know these rounds to see what I saw which I do find interesting
